PG - 1137-43 AB - BACKGROUND: In this era of precision medicine, monitoring patients requires not only real time but also longitudinal sequence of samples at various time points. Based on this background, we focused on conditioned circumstances on fixation and storage for re-utilization of CTCs. MATERIALS: Instead of actual CTCs, Cell line (H1975) derived from lung cancer was used because of their scarceness of CTCs. METHODS: These cells were put on a slide by using an auto-smear device. The slides were evaluated under various centrifuge forces, fixations for the following storages. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: The study indicated that 800 rpm for 1 min centrifuge and fixation by 95% ETOH was excellent. Further at least 5 cells per 1 mL cell solution were required for the following procedures including Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis. This study provides insights of new platform for evaluation of CTCs not only real time but also longitudinal sequence at various time points.
